Overwhelmed

Relentlessly trying to do the needful,

Yet I find myself in stagnant waters

of dismay & distraught.

I feel overwhelmed,

I feel rather lost and incapable;

And I don’t think that’s quite a nice feeling to have.

I’m rowing upstream without paddle,

Against the roaring storm

Shadowing time, but still falling behind.

They say that if God doesn’t catch you when you fall-

He will give you wings to fly.

But I feel I’m neither flying or falling,

Stuck in the middle I suppose?!

Or at the edge of the cliff?!

Hoping for some refuge.
